FSP Licences: Available Across All Categories

Monthly Management

Your FSP licence is only as good as the compliance behind it.

Holding an FSP licence is not a one-time achievement. It is an ongoing obligation. The FSCA expects licence holders to maintain fit-and-proper Key Individuals, file annual renewals, meet FICA requirements, submit to periodic audits, and respond to regulatory correspondence, all while running a business.

Many firms underestimate what this costs when handled internally or by a generalist provider. The result is missed deadlines, regulatory risk, and in some cases, licence suspension.
